OK so I've read loads of threads concerning the cooling system and people either having issues with their Mini overheating or suspecting problems as the gauge doesn't move just seems to sit half way all the time.
BUT
None which describe what our R50 is showing.... I must admit its been like this for months but I thought after a recent service I'd look into it a bit more ANYWAY.... The temperature gauge now never seems to get to half way, usually sits about a quarter of the way sometimes creeps up to half when idle standing and when pulling off after a couple of minutes its back down to a quarter. Admittedly its better than its over heating, only adverse thing my missus has said its that it takes the heaters a little longer to come up to temperature but that's about it.
Any ideas?
Anything I should worry about? Thermostat issues?
thanks!
